1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)imidazole is an imidazole derivative. Its gas-phase elimination kinetics study has been studied both theoretically and experimentally.
1-(t-butoxycarbonyl)imidazole can be synthesized by the reaction of imidazole and 1,2,2,2-tetrachloroethyl-t-butyl carbonate or the reaction of t-butanol and N,N′-carbonyldiimidazole in high yield.1
